Abstract
Maintaining the leading position of railway transport in the international transportation market led to the creation of its combined interaction with other modes of transport. In countries that have access to international traffic through the sea, rail-ferry services have been developed. At the initial stage of functioning of this symbiosis, only freight and passenger cars were transported by sea. At the moment, it has become possible to follow container trains on railway ferries by sea. An example would be the international Silk Road corridor, which connects Ukraine with China. Important components of this corridor are two rail-ferry routes through the waters of the Black and Caspian Seas.
Highlights
To ensure the safety of container trains traveling by sea, it is necessary to determine the dynamic loads acting on them when transported by rail ferries
The computational model for determining the dynamic load of a tank container placed on a flat wagon during transportation by a railway ferry was developed
The maximum accelerations that act on the tank container are about 3.8 m/s2
Summary
To ensure the safety of container trains traveling by sea, it is necessary to determine the dynamic loads acting on them when transported by rail ferries. This will make it possible to formulate recommendations for the safe operation of vehicles during transportation by sea, as well as the creation of their modern designs. The issue of determining the dynamic load of containers during transportation as part of combined trains on railway ferries is not raised in these works. The determination of the dynamic loading of vehicles during transportation by rail ferries is DYNAMIC LOAD EFFECT ON THE TRANSPORTATION SAFETY OF TANK CONTAINERS AS PART OF COMBINED TRAINS ON RAILWAY FERRIES. The issues of determining the dynamic load and stability of tank containers in these works are not covered
